Pregnancy: Inform the doctor if you are pregnant or suspect becoming pregnant.

Blood thinning medicines: Any blood thinning medicines you have been taking for blood clotting or cardiac issues need to be informed to the doctor too.

Stop usage of other medicines: Other medicines like supplements and over-the-counter drugs need to be stopped few days prior to surgery.

Fasting: The doctor also provides instructions on the requisite fasting that has to be done before undergoing dilation and curettage, depending on the anesthetic he plans to use during the procedure.

Dilation and widening of cervix is done by way of inserting a long, thin rod called speculum inside vagina. Thereby, scraping of uteral lining using a spoon-like instrument called curette is carried out. The tissues thus removed are sent to a laboratory for analysis.

If you experience following things, they are normal and not a cause of panic:

Vomiting:Feeling nauseous or having bouts of vomiting is very normal and it does happen as a result of general anesthesia.
